About SupportSpace

SupportSpace, founded in 2005, operated as a provider of online technical support services tailored for both consumers and small businesses. The company's core business involved a virtual workforce of certified experts who utilized a Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) platform to deliver technical assistance. This model allowed them to provide services to vendors and retail users efficiently. The company's primary industry was categorized as Business/Productivity Software.

The company was formerly backed by venture capital, having raised a total of $36.2 million through several funding rounds, including a Series A in 2006, a Series B of $20 million in 2009, and a Series C in 2011. Key investors in SupportSpace included BRM Group, Emergence (Financial Services), and Gemini Israel Ventures. Over its history, the company was headquartered in South San Francisco, California. On May 1, 2015, SupportSpace was acquired by Best Buy Co., marking a significant milestone in its journey.

Currently, the domain name supportspace.com is for sale and is no longer associated with the original company's operations.
